User - yes, developer - no. To get working toolchain installed I need 128M for rootfs. So I will have to boot from card or chroot to card or use symlinks. > Every penny counts in parts on devices like this, and that much of an > increase with little end-user gain isn't nearly as easy as it sounds.

Is there something more which can be removed from Neo phone? It does not have buttons (only 2 planned iirc), no wifi, no power for usb, probably no bluetooth (not decided yet)... O, yes.. we can remove any equipment other then charger - users will use 'mini B' cable from their camera, will buy USB Host cable - this will be few EUR. > Those of us that have delusions of grandeur (myself foremost ;-) are > more than likely best served with adding our own storage. External storage is good for data. Installing software into flash (/) and card (/media/card/) will require using of many symlinks to get it working or moving / to card. Both things is something which I do not like. -- JID: hrw-jabber.org OpenEmbedded developer/consultant Today is the first day of the rest of your life. _______________________________________________ OpenMoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
